Full stack engineer in Giza, Egypt.

I'm Ahmed Hamdy. I ship production web platforms in TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js and PostgreSQL, and I'm open to full-time remote roles.

I currently own a production booking platform end to end (Next.js 15, Express, Drizzle, Redis) and lead the security hardening and rebuild of a corporate platform. I lean backend, with Laravel and PHP as a second stack, plus desktop (Rust and Tauri) and Python projects.

ET GCO Tours loads with LCP under 2.5 seconds and scores 100 on Lighthouse SEO. On the Al Kayan v2.0 rebuild, Lighthouse performance went from 50 to 80+ on staging.
